History

CS Medgidia was founded in 1952 as Cimentul Medgidia (Medgidia Cement), name that was in close contact with the club's owner Medgidia Cement Factory.[2] Over time the club was named also as Voința I.C.S. and Cimentul Voința being a team with constant appearances in the second and third tiers. The local rival of Cimentul was I.M.U. Medgidia, club named over time also as I.M.U. C.S. Școlar and Progresul C.S.Ș.

1999–2000 season of Divizia C was the last one for the club under the name of Cimentul, in the summer of 2000 the club was renamed as CSM Medgidia.[3][4] In 2002 the club promoted back in Liga II, but after two seasons chose to sell its place to Liberty Salonta and continued to play in the Liga III until 2010, when the club withdrew from championship, then being dissolved.[5][6]

In the summer of 2017, the team was re-founded as CS Medgidia and was enrolled in the Liga IV, promoting back in the Liga III after only one season.[7]
